🛑 The U.S. Senate just took a major step to end the longest government shutdown in American history, voting 60-40 on Monday to break a weeks-long deadlock. The shutdown left 800,000+ federal workers unpaid, disrupted food benefits for millions, and even caused air travel chaos. Talk about a rough ride! 🚨
💡 The bill now heads to the House, where Speaker Mike Johnson aims for a Wednesday vote. If passed, it’ll go to President Donald Trump’s desk – but the drama isn’t over. Democrats tried (and failed) to tie funding to health subsidies for 24 million Americans, setting up a December showdown over those expiring benefits. 🏥
✈️ Travelers and federal employees are crossing their fingers for relief. With Thanksgiving around the corner, the pressure’s on to avoid another holiday-season crisis. Stay tuned for updates! 📆
